Pastor Jared's speaks on the Great Commission in Matthew 28:18-20 and says that this should be a Fearless Commission! He expresses that believers should have a tribe mentality, where we look out for those around us rather than look upon people with judgement or jealousy and that we should be fearless in seeking out those who have not known of the truth that we have found in Christ.

Fear. It is something that each and every one of us face. But why do we face it? How can God still use us? This week, as we look at the story of Moses, Torry Sheppard talks about how fear affects our faith. 

Confidence. The step right before faith. God wants us to be confident but many times it is easier said than done. If we are lacking confidence, where do we look? Who do we look to? In this week's message, we're getting our confidence back.

Comparison is a thug that robs our joy. This does not only happen in the world around us, but also in church culture. In this message, Pastor Jason Bonilla speaks about how Jacob learned a lesson about his true identity and who he was called to be.

It's hard to give what you haven't yet received. What does that mean? In this week's episode, Torry and Kalyn Sheppard talk about what it is to truly love. In order for us to love, we must know 'How To Love' God first. We have to love God before we ever feel anything else. 

It's not enough to just go to church. We have to BE the church. It's not enough to just tell people about Jesus. We have to GET people to Jesus. What does that look like? What are you willing to go through to get the people around you in the presence of Jesus? Pastor Noah Herrin's Dad, Torrey Herrin, gives us an incredible word in this week's message. 

We live in some crazy times. Some would call it dark. Where is the church's place in the modern time? Pastor Noah Herrin dives into the idea that Darkness is our greatest opposition but also our greatest opportunity. It's time to go into the night.
